RESUMEN
AIMS: The aims of this study were to clarify: (i) the effectiveness of Matsubara-Yano uterine compression suture (MY) to achieve hemostasis in the presence of postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) during cesarean section, (ii) the type of PPH for which MY is effective, (iii) post-operative complications of MY, and (iv) outcomes of pregnancy after MY. METHODS: This retrospective observational study was performed using medical records of patients for whom MY had been performed between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2017. RESULTS: MY was performed for 50 patients, with hemostasis achieved in 46 (92%). The other four (8%: 4/50) patients required transarterial embolization or hysterectomy. Of these four, three patients had placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) disorder-related bleeding. Post-operative complications were observed in three (6%: 3/50) patients, with all showing intrauterine infection. All three patients recovered solely with antibiotics. Eight pregnancies were confirmed (five livebirths, two spontaneous abortions in the first trimester, and one case of ongoing pregnancy). Of the five livebirths, one resulted in cesarean hysterectomy due to placenta previa with PAS disorders. CONCLUSIONS: MY had a hemostatic effect on PPH. All cases except one with hemostatic failure were associated with PAS disorders, indicating that the hemostatic rate was lower in those with PAS than non-PAS disorders.

In 1997, B-Lynch pioneered the use of uterine compression sutures for postpartum hemorrhage. Since then, some researchers, including ourselves, have devised various uterine compression sutures. High-level evidence has not been demonstrated as to whether compression sutures achieve better and safer hemostasis for postpartum hemorrhage than other methods, and, if they do, whether one suture is more efficient and safer than another. However, generally speaking, uterine compression sutures have achieved hemostasis while preserving fertility in many women and thus their efficacy and safety have been time-tested. Each suture has both merits and drawbacks: obstetricians must be aware of the fundamental characteristics of various sutures. In this review, we summarize the technical procedures, efficacy, safety and complications of various uterine compression sutures. We add our own experiences and opinions where necessary.

OBJECTIVES: Various procedures have been introduced to achieve hemostasis for postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) in placenta previa (PP). This study attempted to clarify the effectiveness of the combined use of three hemostatic procedures: Matsubara-Takahashi cervix-holding (MT-holding), intrauterine balloon (IUB), and uterine compression suture (UCS). STUDY DESIGN: This was a historical cohort study on the hemostatic effect of combined procedures for patients with placenta previa (PP) undergoing cesarean section between April 2006 and December 2018. Until 2011 (2006-2011), we used MT-holding alone, whereas since 2012 we have also been using IUB and UCS: MT-holding alone was used in the former period whereas three procedures (MT-holding, IUB, UCS, and their combinations) have been used in the latter period. Perinatal outcomes were compared between 2006-2011 (before group) and 2012-2018 (after group). RESULTS: Of 416 patients with PP, excluding 273 patients with cesarean hysterectomy or no hemostatic procedure, the remaining 143 patients were analyzed. In the after group, intraoperative blood loss, the percentage of patients with postoperative blood loss ≥ 500 ml, and incidence of autologous blood transfusion were significantly lower than in the before group. Multivariate analysis showed that postoperative blood loss ≥ 500 ml decreased in the after group (adjusted OR: 0.3, 95%CI: 0.1-0.8, compared with the before group). CONCLUSION: PPH decreased after introducing the combination of hemostatic procedures in patients with PP. Further studies are needed to determine the best combination and optimal indication for combining hemostatic procedures for PP.

More than 30 uterine compression sutures have been reported; a classification system is urgently needed.

The combination of acute urinary retention and aseptic meningitis has not been well recognized. This combination can be referred to as meningitis-retention syndrome (MRS), when accompanied by no other abnormalities. However, the responsible site of lesions for urinary retention in MRS remains obscure, despite the areflexic detrusor at the time of urinary retention. We recently encountered a man with MRS in whom a urodynamic study was performed twice. In that case, an initially areflexic detrusor became overactive after a 4-month period, suggesting an upper motor neuron bladder dysfunction.

Uterine compression suture to prevent impending recurrence of uterine inversion after laparotomy repositioning has not been reported previously. A 28-year-old primigravid woman demonstrated uterine inversion. Although Huntington's procedure had successfully repositioned the uterus, acute recurrence of inversion with uterine atony appeared to be impending during the surgery. We applied modified uterine compression sutures, which prevented the recurrence of inversion and achieved complete hemostasis. Three years later, the patient became pregnant and vaginally delivered a term infant. Thereafter, uterine inversion recurred, and was repositioned manually. Uterine compression suture may be of use not only for hemostasis for postpartum hemorrhage, but also for prophylaxis against acute recurrence of uterine inversion.
